When the comp is turned on what happens to the cpu and case fans, do they keep spinning or stop?
What display cable are using and where?
So after trying different pcie slot, the card is back in first slot yes? Just to get a sense of where you're at now. Put everything back to how you had it before. Try Hdmi cable if you're using Displayport, sometimes graphics cards default to Hdmi for some reason until Windows loads then can use DP afterwards. It's odd but have seen it happen here. Geforce since 10 series use dynamic cooling fans so they stopping isn't a reliable indicator. Fans on my 1080Ti won't start spinning until temps reach 60c. Do you remember if your card's fans spun consistently from cold boot?
Try single stick of ram too, 2nd slot from cpu.
Fans keep spinning. LED of case fans blink twice though, not sure if thats relevant.
Gpu is back to where it was originally yes
I have been currently only using the HDMI cable at the moment.
Unfortunately I dont remember if theh spun from boot I assumed they did hence why i thought it was dead. My bad.
At the moment I am trying every single slot with one ram stick, about to test the fourth one. Using only HDMI port, with thr gpu in its original slot
If this doesnt work then im going to CMOS reset again and pray that it works. I have already ordered another mboard (cheapest and can return it asap if it doesnt work) which comes tommorow incase all else fails. Just want to say thank you for helping even if all this doesnt work !
